This is why I want to get my sociology PhD. I don’t want to teach at Yale or Harvard. I want to teach somewhere that will allow me to teach in prisons and probably in a community college. Sociology taught me that I had worth. Compassion for others is easy compassion for yourself is fucking hard.
Society teaches us that if we’re not a certain thing we’re worthless. I want to be part of teaching people how much worth they have. Because when you start to believe in that worth you can get healthy.

GodDAMN that’s inspiring.
Kinda like a chain gang- if you live through it, breaking rocks for years will give you enormous strength.

Being OR loving an addict is hard but you fight as much as you can. I’m glad things are looking up for her. If it can happen to her, it can happen to your person.
Love them anyway.
